“We played well to equalize, but we’re sorry we couldn’t show the victory”.
Jeonbuk Hyundai played to a 2-2 draw against Ulsan HD in the fourth round of the Hana Bank K League 1 2024 on Tuesday at Jeonju World Cup Stadium.
Jeonbuk head coach Dan Petrescu said after the match, “It was a game where we played like crazy. We were not good enough in the first half. In the second half, we came out firing and scored another goal. After halftime, the players reacted to the comment that it was the worst first half of the season. I certainly don’t blame Thiago for missing the penalty. It’s great that we equalized, but I’m sorry we couldn’t show the fans the victory.”
Petrescu added: “We definitely deserved the win. We are very lucky to have tied the game after being down by two goals. We were unlucky with injuries and missed penalties. 바카라사이트 Especially the sudden injury to our star player Hong Jung-ho was really unfortunate. Jung Tae-wook did a good job in his place, but it was most important that he didn’t get injured.”
Petrescu added: “It’s obviously disappointing not to have a win in this situation. It’s not the players’ problem. I just want the players to enjoy themselves and show their fighting spirit. We are scoring beautiful goals, but we are conceding goals because of mistakes. I don’t want to put stress on the players.”
Meanwhile, Petrescu added: “Hernandez, as I said, has about two weeks left, and Ahn Hyun-beom is about a week away from returning. Kwon Chang-hoon is rehabbing. Hong Jung-ho needs to be checked. We have a lot of injured players, but we need to find replacements quickly and play.”
